Just a reminder about the bird ID search tool that we have developed just for
Tennessee's birds (and other wildlife). The Tennessee's Watchable Wildlife web
site has a birds section where you can sort the birds by one of many
characteristics, incl. color, habitat, species group, etc.
http://www.tnwatchablewildlife.org/
The web site also has a lot of information on where to watch wildlife in
Tennessee (soon to be updated with info on where to go in fall).
Cheers,
Scott Somershoe
Did you know that Watchable Wildlife Endowment Fund dollars (aka Bluebird tag)
are spent exclusively on research on declining and threatened species in
Tennessee (primarily birds), purchase of land for conservation, and promotion
of wildlife viewing opportunities, i.e. Elk at N. Cumberland WMA, Sandhill
Cranes at Hiwassee and Yuchi Refuges, and shorebirds and other wildlife at many
other WMA's and TWRA Refuges?
